[QUOTE=Parasitius;2751861]I still have no idea why people talk like this. This is a theoretical supposition that Colombian girls are ordering stuff on an international market and therefore American money has some concrete significance to their lives. Do you think these girls are ordering Nikes off Amazon and paying import duties? Cause I promise they're not. 350,000 is a real number that relates to real prices found in their lives, 75 is some abstract concept about things that concern people who trade stocks and comodities.
350,000 is realistically $110 because that's what it will be as soon as the exchange rate returns to normal. Once they've tasted those amounts, they won't go back down. Never heard of any prosititution market anywhere in the world where a new price gets established and then falls back down in all my 20 years in the sport[/QUOTE]I'm going to explain this 2 ways.
1. When the exchange rate was 2000 to 1 the Facebook girls were getting 150 k. At 3000 to 1, still 150 k. At 4000 to 1, it finally began to move up to 200 k. After 2 years at or above 4000 per dollar, it's creeping up to 250 k.
From the monger POV, the cost at each rate was $75, $50, $50 and $63. That's over an 8 year span. Adjusting for inflation, even if it was at $90 the actual cost to the monger would be less than 8 years ago.
Has your cost for anything else dropped in the past 8 years? I just went to a place I haven't visited for 1 year. I ordered my usual. What cost $14 last year costs over $18 now. All the complaints about having to pay more for pussy when you're actually paying less seem silly at best.
2. Colombia is not some magical land where inflation doesn't exist. Costs have gone up, in some cases the increase over the past 2 years has far outpaced inflation. Every girl is spending more money just to maintain the same standard of living. If your income does not meet your living expenses, income needs to increase. In simple terms, 200 k today buys less than 200 k bought 2 years ago.
I won't try to speak for anyone else. If my boss was still trying to pay me what he was paying 8 years ago, we wouldn't be talking.
Forget about how what a girl is charging compares to what the typical Colombian makes. To begin with the number everyone uses isn't the typical or average wage, it's the government mandated minimum wage. How many of you are willing to suck my dick for minimum wage? Try getting a taxista to give you a BBBJ for 40 k.
The Colombian minimum wage has been a big issue for several years. Flat out, it's not enough to support a family. Why do you think most girls either still live at home, or share a place with several other girls? They aren't driving new BMW's and living in penthouse apartments. They're sleeping on a piece of foam on a concrete floor, with no hot water and minimal comforts.
If I need to adjust what I pay to match inflation, I'm okay with that. If I have to pay more, I'm okay with that too. If I don't want to pay what a girl wants, I know how to either keep looking, or to go where it's cheaper.
